stephanie: hello, current tv land. our number one jackie schechner. for political geeks, it's like christmas morning, state of the union night. did you hear who's going to be there? ted nugent. >> bill press just called him a terd in the punch bowl. stephanie: there's a metal detector before you get in, right? just checking. >> if you threaten the president, under investigation which he was then probably not allowed to come to the state of the union. stephanie: one would think. i hope the secret service men go like this, watching you. >> they should prohibit him from coming. it seems a strange thing to allow. stephanie: it's a new level of disrespect for the president. >> and dangerous. stephanie: it's right wing, another version of joe wilson yelling "you lie." it's a visual you affront to the president. >> i agree totally. here's jackie schechner. >> good morning everybody.

north korea has conducted a third test of its nuclear defense program. the white house is calling its a highly provocative act emphasizing it's vigilant in the face of north korean provocation and commitment to allies in the region adding it is a violation of several u.n. security council resolutions and a threat to u.s. and international security. according to the north korean state media the nation set off a device underground at a northeastern test site. experts say north korea is working to build weaponry small enough to fit on long-range missiles and north korea is calling its test a first response to u.s. hostility. >> the senate armed services committee is scheduled to vote on the confirmation of chuck hagel today as our nation's next secretary of defense. the vote is likely to come down

to 14-12 a split along party lines with republicans against. some want to oppose the nomination, but doesn't look like republicans have support for a filibuster. harry reid is said to want a full vote by tomorrow or thursday. tonight is the president's state of the union address. i'll have more on what to watch for, who's going to be there and whether or not the speech really matters. we're back after the break. stay with us. what we need are people prepared for the careers of our new economy. by 2025 we could have 20 million jobs without enough college graduates to fill them. that's why at devry university we're teaming up with companies like cisco to help make sure everyone's ready with the know how we need for a new tomorrow.

ah, ok. thank you you. >> thank you jackie. stephanie: you're exactly the right size. all right. oh, and here's the one thing where's my hate letter music? you will find this somewhat hilarious. we have a complaint letter. >> ok. stephanie: i think chris mentioned we made news yesterday. i wondered why i was getting hate letters calling me a racist. i did huh? ing oh. this -- who is this from? do you remember we did jackie's health care corner and played a sound byte, a whole bunch of nonsense that i don't remember. we deconstructed the whole thing. >> a bunch of crap. stephanie: right. that was the morning we were obsessed with eating a rice ball and we posted it on my facebook page and talked about it all morning because it was our latest internet fixation, so we were refreshing to it all morning. i swear to god i did not understand this until you told

me. i said let's unpack this rice ball of nonsense, referring to the sound byte. you understand where this is going. apparently i was making an asian reference. >> according to news busters. they said she was talking about a video about eating rice ball, but we could see how this is racist. stephanie: i'm going is that not racist for someone to think i meant that. i wasn't thinking racist at all. i'm like what? ok. i'm just saying it's racist for people to think i had a racist in tent. >> nobody read it that way until they started to suggest that perhaps that's what it was. >> until they thought they caught you in something racist. >> you accidentally referred to the eating the rice ball. they were saying that's not what she meant that she actually meant something else. >> the president of the asian

american journalist association. [ laughter ] stephanie: begs to differ. paul chung has written to us, right, chris? this is for all of us. >> need apology for rice ball slur on "stephanie miller show." >> ok. wasn't a slur. >> i don't know why jackie takes the bullet for this. dear miss jackie schechner. in these partisan times, there are lots of people who look to make headlines as well as make a point. there are all kinds of ways to do this. making racist statements should not be one of those ways. we agree, paul. oh, my god this is however they have to go to see the left is more racist than -- what? ok. that's why we were disappointed that one of your commentators did that. your host, jackie schechner played a comment -- first of

all, i did. >> the person doesn't pay attention to the joe. >> your host jackie schechner made a comment. miss miller said we tried to unpack that little rice ball of nonsense. >> that's not at all what you said. stephanie: no. rice ball! >> unpacking a rice ball. stephanie: talks about several other things. it didn't occur to me -- anyway, and it isn't worthy of miss schechner for current tv. >> i didn't say it! i didn't say it! stephanie: we'd like to see miss schechner apologize. >> i didn't say it. stephanie: well, if that's what counts as an apology from you miss jackie schechner that's fine. >> when i make a mistake with, i'm the first person to admit

it. stephanie: me, too! >> i don't think there's weakness in that. if you made a mistake say you're sorry and move on. the biggest problem we get into is trying to defend ourselves knowing we did something wrong. had i done something, i would have apologized for it. people know that about me. stephanie: oh, my god. the guy who owns the show trying to kill me for the life insurance is what is this, what should we do about this. chris and i are like well, this is the most ridiculous thing ever. >> i pointed out to him the time line of us playing the slow lauras eating the rice ball, talking about unpacking rice balls all morning long. >> here we go stephanie miller. [ laughter ] >> you really think that that would be the insult you would use? >> there are so many things about michelle malkin, i don't

think her ethnicity is a concern to anybody. stephanie: as i recall, jackie saying at one point that's a ridiculous point on health care because she's asian. [ laughter ] stephanie: i was like jackie! so ok. this -- yeah, and i wondered again, i should know whenever i get hate mail i don't understand, i should just call you and say i made news besters again, haven't i? >> indeed, miss miller, you have. stephanie: it happens to regularly, chris doesn't bother to tell me. >> i did wonder finished forward you the link and i thought nah chris is on it. >> it shows up in my google news alert every time it happens. stephanie: i'm like all right what today. >> do you have to we'd through them to get to your regular email, chris?

>> pretty much. stephanie: leftwing talker stephanie miller made an eyebrow raising attack on michelle malkin miller snared let's unpack this rice ball. there it is again! stephanie: this line could leave one with the impression that it was a racially tinged insult. >> if you're racist. >> if you're inclined to think that way, sure. stephanie: if you listen to the show, it is comprised entirely of sophomoric jabs about the die jessive track. >> what? stephanie: they hopefully supply a transcript, jackie.

[ laughter ] stephanie: is there insurance for that? someone on your facebook page just said your colon is not a fact checker no matter how many ignorant statements you pull out your ass. this is the part jacki, you were saying is kind of hilarious. the rice ball line was mentioned earlier in the hour and through the whole show and became something of a running gag during the program a video eating food items. someone tuning in at that moment might have been offended. >> they are worried about someone tuning in and misinterpreting out of context. stephanie: they would

misinterpret by news busters posting a headline. >> they posted a misleading and out of context headline as they are wont to do. >> this is entirely untrue. >> exactly. when this gets posted to my going the news alert, it gets posted as the headline. stephanie: we'll show you why this is complete [bleep]. it's too late, you've already sent your insult letters to miss miller. >> is miss stephanie miller racist? no but... stephanie: anyway, so there's that. so that was part of my day yesterday. [ applause ] >> that sounds like fun. stephanie: dear god at least it's state of the union night whohooray! >> do we have a state of the union drinking game? >> every time he says "rice ball" drink.

>> that's not going to get anyone drunk. what should we pick? stephanie: i'm still too upset about the ted nugent thing. just when you think you can't get to another layer of disrespect against this respect topping yelling you lie during the state of the union really? >> it's one thing to have it him. i don't understand why he's loud. if you are a regular citizen not a celebrity who made a threat against the president would he be allowed to attend the state of the union? stephanie: that's what i would think. oh texas republican congressman, that guy stockman, announced he is excited to have a patriot like ted new jersey generality with me in the house chamber. >> do patriots threaten the president's life? stephanie: apparently. now everybody's going to talk about this, but it makes it, i think like a, you know, a side show, a charade. this is the state of the union you know?

this is -- >> it doesn't make sense to me that they would allow it. i don't understand why the secret service doesn't say this is a man who made a threat on the president, he should not be allowed if the chamber and that's the end of it. it's astonishing to me. you can invite hover you want. doesn't mean they should be allowed to come. stephanie: would you like fun facts? he has in the past threatened to kill president obama, secretary of state hillary clinton, dianne feinstein and barbara bachner. he said, this isn't like a news buster transcript, this is natural. >> if you want, i have the audio. stephanie: the whole thing? i was in chicago. >> this is supposed to be part of right ring word. >> obama. >> pull a machine gun. [bleep] >> let's hear it for him.

[ applause ] i was going to say hillary -- [ cheers and applause ] >> hey dianne feinstein. >> is my hearing going or do we need sub titles? stephanie: i'd be happy to read it. i was in chicago when hi said hey, obama you might want to suck on one of these punk. he was holding his machine gun. that's what the secret service would see a threat against the president. obama is a piece of [bleep]. i said hey hillary you might want to ride one of these into the sunset. i saw barbara backner. she might want to suck on my machine begun. hey, dianne feinstein ride on one of these you whore.

>> this is a man we want in the same room? >> when did we allow people who make threats against the president in the same room? stephanie: i'll either be dead or in jail this time next year if he wins. he said officials are criminals and like an animal that needs to be shot. he claims he wishes the south won the civil war. he denounced what he calls obama's racist agenda and liberal jihad. unlike most crazy people visited by the f.b.i., jacki they don't get invited to the state of the union. >> why is he going? he hates the president and senator barbara backner. stephanie: i'm sure it's to psych the president out. that's why it's just a way, you know, it's a mind game.

>> you think the president cares about ted nugent? stephanie: no. >> really? stephanie: that's good news, he has other stuff to deal with, i'm guessing. jacki schechner remains in the side car filling in for jim moore. >> will she yell? stephanie: we'll make her. and also do christopher walkin. >> she gets insulted by more right wingers by 6:00 a.m. than most people do all day. it's the "stephanie miller show."

it starts to whom it may concern, which we say doesn't include any of us here. i was recently offended to a comment of -- i'm offended already on his attack on prep significances, let me just start by saying. i was recently offended to a comment of stephanie miller's referring to disagree to an asian woman's comments as rice ball of nonsense is simply degrading and a racist comment. ok. that is such violence against the english language and grammar. >> that syntax makes my heart hurt. >> i'm a huge grammar nerd. it's incredibly offense. stephanie: many asians have supported the liberal cause but will not tolerate hateful who would disagree with stephanie's

stephanie: richard you're on the "stephanie miller show." caller: good morning what you said about michelle malkin might have been somewhat insensitive but you're not racist. i just want people to know that. i'm your opposite when it comes to the political spectrum. now with that the ted nugent, michelle obama a fantastic first lady, that's a statement that kind of -- i justled like to know if they're going to go after gaining members and convicted felons that commit gun crimes as hard as they go after people like myself who are honest, law abiding never done anything wrong. stephanie: how are they going after you more? obviously they're going after gang violence as well.

how are they going after you harder? caller: by basically saying the people that own guns are the once funneling these guns to gang members. i am for laws that track down these two young men they arrested, one i heard has confessed. they should totally investigate how he got that gun. stephanie: right. caller: and find the people guilty of how he got that gun and bring him before the prosecutors. they give probation to people who steal guns from gun stores without any qualms. just listen to our side. we do not want to be vilified or compared to felons or gang members when it comes to gotten ownership or the use of guns. stephanie: i don't understand your analogy how you're being compared, a allow abiding january owner how are you being

persecuted? >> i'm just saying if you look at the last 15 years of the gun control issue what used to be gun control incorporated is now the brady patrol against gun violence. they changed the frosting, but it's still a chocolate cake underneath the frosting. they still basically want to take away guns from people who are law abiding citizens. stephanie: no, they don't. you still haven't said how you've been persecuted as a law abiding gun owner. caller: i've listened to the debate ratchet up where anybody who owns a gun is a hate -- stephanie: no! they haven't said that. the president has talked about the vast majority of what americans want, background checks. a majority would like a ban on assault rifles and high capacity clips. caller: if you look at australia, when it comes to

semiautomatic rifles, they outlawed every single thing that is semiautomatic. stephanie: and gun violence dropped precipitously. we can go back and forth but i would win.

nugent is bringing him because there's going to be gun violence there. it's a point-counter point. because gabrielle giffords and the parents of the girl just slain in chicago are going to be there. >> that's helpful. stephanie: boyd in florida you're on the "stephanie miller show." caller: hello? stephanie: hi, boyd, go ahead. caller: hi, stephanie. i really love you guys. the last guy was kind of a goofball. stephanie: that goofball.

you didn't say anything. i understood exactly what you said. stephanie: nobody but racists would think i meant anything racial about michelle malkin. caller: it might have occurred to you and once they said that, i thought that's just pitiful. stephanie: right because they have true racists like ted nugent on their side. they do the same play, both sides do it and both sides are equally as bad. no, they're not. caller: i want to see people call him out on it. did he have an epiphany recently denouncing that type of thing? i don't think so. stephanie: it's not only the ridiculous comment he made, but any sane version of the republican party that my dad and gold water were in would say% anybody who has made a threat against the president of the united states is not sitting for the state of the union address. i use the word unprecedented. stephanie: and don't forget, he crapped his pants to get out of

presidents have been declaring the state of the union strong, or some variation of the word. "the new york times" has an interesting piece today saying that wasn't always the case, that when things weren't going well some presidents had no problem saying so. 1975, president ford announced bad news and didn't expect applause calling the state of the union not good, due to high unemployment. in in that 61, president kennedy used the word disturbing in describing the economy saying he was talking about to the nation at time of per i will and opportunity. president reagan in 19 ate two used the word as a way to show things had been improving from the year before. president clinton and bush used the term over and over again in their state of the unions and that's how it became solidified and something we've come to expect. also expect tonight president obama to make an announcement that he plans to bring home some 34,000 troops from afghanistan

by this time next year. that is slightly more than half of the troops that are till there. what else should we expect tonight? we're going to hear about jobs, the economy immigration likely climate change and gun control legislation. less certain will the president address the use of drones against u.s. citizens abroad. will he bring up syria or iran, or talk about security at the u.s. embassy and consulates. the washington post warns not to get too worked up about it, that the state of the union has rarely changed anybody's mind. we're back after the break. ♪

to scream out you lie is still going to have a seat. stephanie: like it's def comedy jam. we have a sense of history and decorum. it's still the united states of america. >> history and decorum definitely not. we're talking about us, ok? here's the truth the truth is for a long time, penalties have the good sense not to go to congress. adams did it. jefferson thought it was a bad idea. he sent a message. it took years way past ruther ford b. hayes not until woodrow wilson. he said i'm going to give the speech again. it is now a modern era tradition, really, for the president to address this joint session of congress. it wasn't always thus. maybe it would be better just to send them a note.

stephanie: exactly. here's how things are. >> here's how things are you guys figure it out. we know certain things are going to be said tonight the president is going to continue some of the themes from his inaugural address. i've got to tell you,. stephanie: you mean the issues that he ran on that the majority of americans agree with him but he will be obstructed by the republicans in congress? >> yes i mean those. the thing that is astonishing to me, what are we now, it is about three weeks since the inauguration, and it is a speech the farther away from it you get, rather like president kennedy's ask not what your country can do for you the farther away we get from seneca falls to selma to stonewall the more moved i am. the more i realize that that was a moment, a defining moment in the history of our country where he brought together the

new america the new american majority, which is women which is minorities, which now includes the lgbt community. he brought them together and rhetoric matters stephanie. that's the thing that, you know, they say words are not important, they, you know, they're spoken go out in the air, they're gone, but every now and again when a president speaks, and it's few and far between when you have those moments, it changes history and this president did that. stephanie: right but, you know, obviously this is what we're hearing, because this is going to focus more on the economy and jobs than anything else. >> it is. stephanie: again what's going to change? what are we facing now the march 1 deadline for avoiding. >> sequestration. stephanie: right. again, there's mitch mcconnell yesterday, clearly the president wants more revenue for more government he's gotten all the revenue he's going to get. been there done that.

that's the problem, he's going to talk about money for infrastructure, manufacturing job, clean energy, expanding access to early childhood education and there he will be sitting in front of a republican congress that's going to once again obstruct all of that, right? >> well, they are. what the president is also doing is he's leaving washington immediately, and among other things he is doing the modern era of the fireside chat, a google chat after the state of the union. he is going over the heads of this congress. that is the difference between barack obama 2.0. this president is liberated. you're no longer sensing that he's trying to get mitch mcconnell to come to the table or john boehner as if john boehner actually had any power left in his own caucus. he's now going to not only going to do the google chat, he's going to atlanta, south

carolina chicago he is back out on the road. obama for america has been becoming organized for action. there will be state of the union watch parties all over the country. we are in a permanent campaign, but in a good way actually, because that's how you're going to move this congress. stephanie: one of the issues obviously is going to be different tonight that the american people largely agree with him is on gun control and there willthere will gabrielle giffords and her husband the parents of the girl just slain in chicago sitting with michelle obama. you know, it seems to me, and there will be ted nugent on their side. i mean. >> suck on this. >> exactly. >> it is shameful. i would call it comedy, but it is, you know, still too close. it's tragedy to see ted nugent have any role or any presence in a ceremony like this, however when we use phrases like gun

control, ok, we give up -- it's pro choice, pro life. words do matter. this isn't about gun control. this is about gun safety, protecting children, this is about the things that 92% of americans agree on. stephanie: mmm hmm. >> if we allow them to define the terms which is what happened for those first four years, obamacare the affordable health care act became obamacare, became a pejorative. stephanie: right. >> we can't let that happen on this issue. when you have police chiefs, people who believe in public safety saying across the board we've got to do these things, then you win the debate, and that's what the president is saying. stephanie: here's the republican party saying we are not in disarray and there are two responses again to the state of the union, the republican party and the tea party. here's rand paul talking. >> i see it as an extra

response, i don't see it necessarily at divisive. i won't say anything that is necessarily like marco rubio is wrong. he and i don't always agree. this isn't about he and i. this is about the tea party. stephanie: they still haven't finished their argument between the republican party, the tea party and fox news before they can have a debate with us. >> wouldn't it be fun if rand paul just got up there and said marco -- rubio! just for the hell of it. rand paul is seriously running for president and just get ready for it. stephanie: that turkey, really? >> he is the tea party's darling, and so, you bring the rand paul, if you want to call them libertarians, you can, they do you bring that contingent in and marry it with the tea party and you've got a movement that's

going to be very tough for establishment. when marco rubio is the establishment candidate, you know you're in trouble. stephanie: exactly. what else do you expect to hear tonight from the president? >> climate change. stephanie: really? >> and we're getting a little preview. that was not a toss off line stephanie. stephanie: that's what senator boxer said when we got to go to her luncheon. she was genuinely excited with what the president said in the inaugural. >> did she serve box lunches? really? stephanie: really? really, you went there? >> it is something that no one expected rather like this vanishing position, no one really expected that the president was going to make this a top priority, and frankly it's long overdo, and i think we're going to hear it yet again tonight in the state of the union and it is going to be something that will cross party

lines. look, when you have climate disasters, when you have storms of the century annually, every year. stephanie: yeah. >> something is wrong. it cuts across -- remember, it hit republican areas remember it was peter king, a republican congressman who basically started screaming at his own leadership for their lack of responsiveness on it. we're getting to a place where the republicans themselves realize they have to act not because they think -- even if they don't believe it's real, they are seeing what's happening in their districts and it's economically a disaster for them. stephanie: yeah. it doesn't matter until it becomes money then it suddenly gets republican attention. >> in my back yard. stephanie: david bender, political director of progressive voices.com. >> you can get the stephanie miller show! stephanie: golly! david babbledder happy state of the union talk to you tomorrow!

access. stephanie: what did grace slick do? why was she denied access? caller: it was 1970. >> because she was a radical. caller: she was a protestor against nixon. stephanie: oh, i see. caller: her guest was abby hoffman. stephanie: oh, all right. caller: they didn't feel that that was appropriate. >> there's precedent for denying people. stephanie: i wish someone could say, let me check the computer, no you don't get to come. >> if cindy sheehan is denied access. stephanie: because she was wearing a tee shirt or something. mabel from texas you're on the "stephanie miller show." hi, mabel. caller: hi, how are you doing this morning? stephanie: good, go ahead. caller: i keep thinking all the reasons the republicans keep saying that we can't have the different forms of gun control that is needed, and i keep thinking if we can't have it because it doesn't work, then why don't we throw out the penal

code and 10 commandments? under the penal code, murder doesn't work, throw it out. under the 10 commandments, though shall not commit adultery, that doesn't work even for the congressmen so throw it out. >> this is secret audio this is what we're up against. >> we have a strong attempt next year. a lot of that's going to be delayed. it has to go through the process. we have a leading democratic in the legislature sort of most of the time, not all the time, people in my caucus really want to ban guns. we're going to deal with the close the gun show loophole, wouldn't that be good? so far there's nothing happening on that. stephanie: wow he says we have a strong agenda. it will be delayed somewhat by the connecticut effect.

arrange a friend of mine from australia to call you. unform, it's like 4:00 in the morning yesterday or tomorrow. stephanie: oh, cry me a river. that's what time we get up every day. but go ahead. caller: under the conservative prime minister, they initiated a gun buy back. the crime rates i heard that the crime rates went up. that's an absolute lie. they do still have weapons but what they did is they basically did what california's moving to do and as a matter of fact, i believe the architect of that bill is the same woman that managed to get this done in australia to the point that look, only thing we're arguing about here is how many times you can flex your finger and fire a bullet. we're not trying to make it you can't open a guns. anything over six shots out of a revolver it's six for a gun of any sort and your rifles have to be bolt action, and you still have your right to own weapons but we're not going to let this just everybody buy them and the kind of garbage that's been

going on. enough's enough. you paranoid gun nuts should get used to it, we're not going to stop until we're done. stephanie: the thing you were talking about, australia there was a big -- violence with automatic weapons. they banned them and gun violence has gone way down. what is the n.r.a. lie? caller: it is that after that happened that supposedly criminals were going around and kicking in people's doors and accosting them with handguns and weapons, and that is absolutely not the case. furthermore, the weapons, when it comes to automatics, you can own them, but you have to keep them at the firing range and go through more of a background check to the point you have people that will vouch for you go through a mental evaluation and through full gun safety training. if you get caught after two years, they had a grace period, both back every weapon and clip. after two years if you got caught with that mess, you're going to prison. that's what we need to do here.

appointment of the speech. do you expect it to be able to change anything that's going to happen? >> i think that if he, you know, continues to wrong foot them, i think he's going to get something. i don't think he's going to get the assault weapons ban because there are democrats lined up against it. the magazine thing the size of the magazine is a little bit more possible, i think but still a pretty tough slog. i think he'll get background checks. more to the point the whole dialogue on this issue has completely changed. this was something not brought up at all in his first term except by crazy people who insisted that he was waiting until his second term to go get the guns. stephanie: we played the secret audio, talking about the connecticut effect. that's nothing. but as we said, i do think it's different this time. >> i think the one thing that's different, not to be completely crass is that there's money

behind it now. gabrielle giffords has started and organization, she's raising money. stephanie: yep. >> there's money to counter act the money on the other side for the first time in a long while probably for the first time since the brady bill. i think that changes things around. stephanie: actually, the president's going to propose deep nuclear arms cuts. i wonder if he's going to whip out the reagan on them again which tends to make their heads explode. that's dramatic cuts he's talking about. >> jay carney has already walked that one back, hasn't he? he already said that he isn't going to propose deep cuts in nuclear weapons. stephanie: oh, really? >> i think so. i think that was a new york times story that came out. it's not a bad idea. stephanie: right. >> i mean, you know, the defense cuts and the sequester are not a bad idea. why do we have that many troops in germany is beyond me. stephanie: here we are right march 1, the quester weaver

already got mitch mcconnell saying clearly the penalty wants more revenue for more government. we're going to have the same -- the president's going to layout everything that he wants to do, that he ran and won on, right? and the american people largely agree with and they will be sitting on their hands. >> not only that, he's being told by everyone on television that he has to reach out and have a "nixon goes china" moment in which he like adopts some of the plan that was completely rejected by the voters in the fall. >> nobody writes about irritation with sunday shows better you do. you share my -- that's what i screamed to david gregory. i'm going to start texting him during his -- it really is, the president needs to reach out more. that's the mean every week, right? >> the president should reach out more. he doesn't have to reach out on anything else, just that.

one response and put up this guy we really think should be president one day and you can shut up, and. they can't do it. there's no way to stop him. stephanie: and a sensible republican party my dad's republican party would have said stockman, you're not bringing ted nugent to the state of the union, you're not bringing someone who has threatened the president's life. >> for all the cosmetic changes they claim to be making, they still don't have any energy in the party if you get rid of the crazy people. stephanie: uh-huh. what else do you -- are you expecting to hear, hope to hear? >> what i hope to hear, like an aggressive climate change proposal which i'm not going to get. he'll mention it. i think i'd like to hear jobs, jobs jobs, jobs, not one word about the deficit. that would make my heart go pity pat. not only would that make everybody's head on television explode, it would make me very happy. stephanie: we are told it will

be used on using to protect jobs, bring down the deficit -- >> whoa, wait. stephanie: he will once again say this is what the american people voled for right? >> what i'm fairly impressed by is he's getting back on an airplane as soon as this is over and going to try to sell this down in north carolina. people are yelling he is still in the campaign, right he still has people backing him. stephanie: you can't reasonably watch any of those republicans eric cantor was on meet the press. no matter how you spin it, it's like no, you were on the wrong side of the polling of everything the penalty wants to get done. he ran on those issues, won on those issues. it's just -- i don't did eric cantor say anything that made sense to you sunday? >> no, this is what he did. first of all if you're giving a really big speech about how the republican party is changing its

appeal to working people, you don't give it to the american enterprise institute. i'm sorry. if they invite you to do it or not, you don't do it. you do it someplace else. second of all we're going to put america back to work. there isn't a single proposal that's going to do anything about that. >> exactly. >> it's the same stuff. stephanie: when paul krugman is on those shows everybody else shut up. he says it almost every week. austerity is the worst possible thing we can do right now. >> a week ago he took a whack at joe scarborough. started again today. stephanie: what did he say? >> talked about how paul, you know, he compared paul krugman's ideas on austerity to climate change. stephanie: hmm? >> mika seemed to drift off to

for violence against women. the objections they make are ludicrous, i think. caller: this is crazy. if you're a woman in america it's getting more scary. just because what do we mean you guys what's, you know, you're in our faces. i was not the republicans to keep this up, because we do have elections coming and that's what they don't realize. the deeper they dig the hole, the more we're all watching, and i'll tell you right now how we feel is we have fear. we have fear for what they're trying to do, because they're in our faces with all kinds of negativity. stephanie: that would be awesome, if even the gerrymandering didn't work and it blowed up in their face real good.

pbs front line, we'll see on you tough the president is whatever he says, they're going to call it divisive, right and he's a hater. whatever. they detailed rush did his recent budget battles with one scene taking a look at the speech. remember when the president eviscerated paul ryan's budget and paul ryan was there. he was talking about the proposal to privatize medicare. it says that 10 years from now if you're a 65-year-old eligible for medicare, you'll have to pay $6,400 more than you would today. instead of guaranteed health care, you'd get a voucher and if you can't buy insurance, tough luck. it ends medicare as we know it. ryan at the time called that a partisan broadside. seriously, jacki is there anything in there that's nasty or personal? >> no, but it's the screaming "you lie" at the state of the

union is pretty nasty. every time you poke them in any way, it's a horrible attack of epic proportions and then they smack back, and they're like i don't know what you're to us. stephanie: right. according to the front line special, the administration officials didn't expect ryan to attended the speech, and they tried to warn obama of ryan's presence but didn't get to him in time. i'm reading that and going that was some sort of horrible -- caller: what does it matter? privatizing medicare is a horrible idea. >> he didn't personally attack him. he just pointed out his policies were wrong. stephanie: he didn't call him the budget munster or anything that one would hear here on the "stephanie miller show." >> didn't hold up a picture of him in workout clothes.% >> didn't say he was unpacking a rice ball. stephanie: he didn't say what kind of dork wears a baseball cap backwards. and do anything but curls really? >> with those biceps, he wasn't curling anything.

in and take away some guns of people who don't need them. this would apply to gangs apply to the mexican cartels. it's just a tool someone might want to use to take away a lot of the problems we have in the cities, the inner city, chicago. what if you took away the gang members' guns or if they have them, they go to jail just like a tryst because guess what? they are. stephanie: all right. i'm not a lawyer. i'm not sure drones can involve every problem. jacki? >> i'm not sure there's a legal way to do that, but i do think we obviously have a problem not only with guns, but gaining violence and it really is a form of domestic terrorism. if you're afraid to step outside your house because you're afraid that somebody is going to use a weapon like that in a dangerous manner, that is a form of terrorism. stephanie: that's right.

was his conversion to islam was the as you will minute nation of a counter intelligence operation against him to recruit him. the fact that four intelligence operatives recruited him when he was in a very sensitive and senior u.s. government position in a for the purpose country means that he is either a traitor or he has the inability to discern and understand how to walk in those kinds of environments, which makes him completely unfit to be the director of central intelligence. stephanie: let me review. instead of being the heads of the c.i.a., he should be executed into treason. we should turn that into a tribunal. >> that's what they peddle. stephanie: ok, let's end with

guns. i don't own one, but i was a veteran. they're only made to kill, so i don't understand the arguments of no regulations. stephanie: i know. yes, exactly. john from illinois, you're on the show. caller: hi. i got a couple little comments here. i don't know if everybody else would go with it, but i think congress should be paid on merit. stephanie: that would be a tough slog for them, wouldn't it? >> if they did they'd finally start getting something done in washington because all they've been trying to do is punish the president of the united states. they're not punishing him. they're punishing the country. stephanie: yeah. caller: by not getting anything done. stephanie: yep. caller: look how long it took to get sandy's relief, what was it, eight-point some billion? stephanie: and so late a lot of people aren't going to be open their businesses in time. caller: what disturbs me more is the pork they put in there for

bachmann refused to pay staffers because they wouldn't sign a retroactive agreement not to cooperate with the police about activities in her campaign. several violations were cited of breaking election law. i hope marcus wasn't involved. he understands the penal code. he might be able to explain what happened there. >> he understands penal. i don't know if he understands the code. stephanie: madonna has found the infra glam. i don't understand anything on the interweb. >> that's because you're old. stephanie: madonna keeps posting unflattering picture. saturday, she posted an image of herself peering over a martini glass with the caption cheers, [bleep] i'm on infra gram. >> that was a really unflattering picture. stephanie: two more shots a sweaty one after a workout and
